Why Coronary Angiography Is Needed

Coronary angiography is performed to evaluate suspected coronary artery disease when a patient has chest pain, an abnormal stress test, or has survived a heart attack, in order to precisely locate and measure the severity of any arterial blockages. It's also used before certain heart surgeries to map the coronary anatomy.

Signs You May Need Coronary Angiography

Chest pain or tightness, especially with exertion, shortness of breath, and abnormal findings on an ECG or stress test are the primary reasons doctors recommend coronary angiography. It's also performed urgently in patients presenting with a suspected heart attack to guide immediate treatment.

Types of Coronary Angiography

Conventional coronary angiography is performed via catheter, most often through the wrist or groin artery, and remains the gold standard for visualizing blockages. CT coronary angiography, a less invasive alternative using a CT scanner and contrast dye, is increasingly used for lower-risk patients to avoid an invasive procedure when appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is coronary angiography risky?

It's a routine and very safe procedure with a success rate around 99%, though your cardiologist will review specific risks based on your health history.

How long does the procedure take?

The procedure itself typically takes 30-60 minutes, with several hours of monitoring and bed rest afterward before discharge.

Will I feel the catheter moving inside me?

No, there are no nerve endings inside blood vessels, so you won't feel the catheter moving, though you may feel a warm sensation when contrast dye is injected.

What happens if a blockage is found?

Your cardiologist may proceed to angioplasty and stenting in the same sitting, or recommend bypass surgery depending on the number and severity of blockages found.

Can I go home the same day?

Yes, most patients are discharged the same day after a few hours of monitoring, provided there are no complications.
